To the mercenaries who travelled a number of times to these sealed tunnels. Would one of you be so kind as to contact me. I would be keen to know what happened in this place, what originally sealed the tunnels, and what you found and did.

I have not much money to pay being a humble chef, but i will do my best to repay this debt if i can.

When the twins made the land they used the power of the dragons, there is some debate as to how that power was used and come by. Shortly after the minotaur and the oryx tribes were assailed by a potent elemental creature which they were unable to defeat.Whether it was hostile or simply uncomprehending is unknown as this took place in the First Age. They sealed it into the mountains with an ancient ritualand broke the tablet upon which the rite was inscribed into several pieces which were then guarded by the various tribes of minotaur and oryx. The oryx fell to evil and associated with/became oni. Their leaders were a woman in a mask and a man wielding a sickly green glowing sword. One piece was stolen, the other pieces guarded by the minotaur tribes. We entered the tunnels within the mountains at the behest of your Emperor and discovering that the oni were up to no good and that their darkness and corruption was spreading and heading towards settlements we resolved to stop it.

Over several missions at the behest of the Emperor we went and retrieved each part of the seal from the minotaur tribes (by explaining to them what it was needed for) broke the dark rite, and broke the seal and entered the prison. We found magical creatures there, akin to elves. They spoke of a master - some happily, some less so. It seemed that in the three ages since it had been trapped it had created these creatures, they were raised to maturity then visited the Master and went to heaven,'We assessed fairly rapidly that the creature having no other source of magic, in order to survive had created this cycle of events for it to feed and shed entropy. We fought the creature and slew it, ending these creatures slavery and the threat to your lands, as well as thwarting the plans of the oni/oryx who had sought to steal its power - though their leaders (green sword and mask are still at large - the greensword is meant to be very dangerous).

No need for payment, maybe a little refreshment should we travel together in the future, I hope this is of help,
